Steps
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 100°C (200°F, or 90°C for convection ovens). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Slice Apples
Wash the apples, then slice them very thinly, about 1-2 mm thick. A mandoline slicer works best for even slices. Remove any seeds from the center of the slices.
Seasoning
In a large bowl, toss the apple slices with the ground cinnamon and optional brown sugar until each slice is evenly coated.
Baking
Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, making sure they don't overlap. Bake for 1.5 to 2.5 hours, or until the apple slices are dry and crispy. Flip them halfway through baking to ensure even crisping on both sides. Baking time may vary depending on the thickness of your slices and your oven.
Cool and Store
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the apple chips cool completely on the parchment paper. They will become crispier as they cool. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
Extra Tips
► Use a mandoline for uniformly thin slices, ensuring the apple chips crisp up evenly.
► Experiment with other spices like nutmeg or apple pie spice blend for variety.
► Store in an airtight container to maintain their crispiness.
